HOW PILLS ARE MADE.

the form Of pills dates lar BACK IN
history. The object is to enable us
to swallow easily in condensed
form disagreeaGle and nauseous, but
very useful, drugs. TO what vast
dimensions pill-taking has grown
may be imagined when we say that
in England alone about 1000, 900,
600 (two thousand million) pills are
consumed every year. In early
days pills were made slowly by hand.
as the demand was comparatively
small. To-day they are produced
with infinitely greater rapidity by
machines especially contrived for
the purpose, and with greater ac-
curaey, too, in the proportions of the
various ingredients employed.
No form of medication can be
better than a pill, provided only it
is intelligently prepared. But right
here occurs the difficulty. Easy ms
it may seem to make a pill, or a
million of them, there are really very
few pills that can be honestly COM
mended for popular use. Most of
them either understood OF overshoot
the mark. As every body takes pills
of some kind, it may be well to men,
ton what q good, safe and reliable
pill should be. Now, when one feels
dull and sleepy, and has more or
less pain in the head, sides, and back,
he may be sure his bowels are con-
stipated, and his liver sluggish. To
remedy this unhappy state of things
there is nothing like a good cathartic
pill. 1t will act like charm by stl-
mulating the liver into doing its du-
ty, and Kidding the digestive organs
of the accumulated poisonous matter
But the good pill does not gript
and pain us, neither does it make III
sick and miserable for few hours
or whole day. II acts on the
entire glandular system at the same
| time, else the after effects Of the
pill will be worse than the disease
4 itself. The gripping caused by mos
pills is the result of irritating drug
y which they contain. Such pills ar,
g harmful, and should never be used
They sometimes even produce he
morrhods. Without having any
particular desire 10 praise one pill
above another, we may, nevertheless
name Mother Seigel's Pills, manu-
featured by the well-known hous,
of A. J. White, Limited, 80, Far
rington Road, London, and now
sold by all chemists and medicine
vendors, as the only one we know
of that actually possesses every de
sirable quality. They remove tn
pressure upon the brain, correct tn
liver, and cause the bowels TO &C
with ease and regularity. The.
= never grippe or produce the slightes
sickness of the stomach, or any othe
unpleasant feeling or symptom
. Neither do they induce further con
stipation, as nearly all other pill
do. As a further and browning
merit, Mother Seigel's Pills ar
covered with tasteless and harm

Unlike many kinds of pills, they
do not make you feel worse before

doubt, the best family physic ever
discovered. They remove ali Qb-
